[QUOTE="timinak, post: 1315819, member: 214908"] I will add that by going the following route: [COLOR="Blue"]System Preferences Print &Scan [B]+[/B] Windows [/COLOR](instead of [B]IP[/B]) [COLOR="Blue"]workgroup[/COLOR] I can see both of my other computers I choose [COLOR="blue"]barbara[/COLOR] (the 'print server') Where I can see both of the printers. choose [COLOR="blue"]Canon-BJC-240[/COLOR] Which places the print name in the [COLOR="blue"]Name:[/COLOR] field below. Enter for [COLOR="blue"]Location: barbara[/COLOR] and from the dropdown list choose the printer model. Click on [COLOR="blue"]Add[/COLOR] and Lion appears to install without any error message. [B]But[/B] when I go to print I get a [code] Cannot connect to printer[/code] message in the [COLOR="blue"]Job Info [/COLOR] section of the queue window. It is not sending authentication?:Confused: [/QUOTE]
